Ingredients:

Serving

1 lb dried orecchiette or 1 lb angel hair pasta
3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil or 3/4 cup butter
2/3 cup italian seasoned breadcrumbs
1 cup chopped prosciutto
sea salt
fresh ground pepper
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley leaves

Directions:

In a large pot, bring to a boil 6 qts of salted water. Cook pasta until al dente; about 8 minutes.
Meanwhile in med-sized saute pan heat oil until warm. Since the bread crumbs will cook quickly, you don't want to add them into a hot pan.
Add the breadcrumbs & stir constantly you may want to season lightly with salt & pepper, since flavored bread crumbs already have seasoning.
Saute for about 2 minutes; remove from heat and set aside.
Drain pasta in colander. Working quickly; add pasta to saute pan & stir to combine.
Add Parmesan & prosciutto & mix thoroughly.
Pour into large serving bowl & garnish with chopped parsley.
